Fragpedal & XBox: Omnimouse & JoystickMarch 2, 2009
For those of you who have emailed about using your Fragpedal (or Omnimouse) with your Xbox via a USB mouse/keyboard adapter, we have completed a new firmware update that enables both devices to be recognized by adapters as a USB mouse. Many Xbox games gain a new kind of game play with dual foot controls. If you have a particular game you'd like to test this with, we'd appreciate your feedback as we tune this implementation. Email us about testing with the updated pre-release firmware.
Omnimouse Joystick Emulation
This firmware update includes several other new features including enabling the Omnimouse to be recognized and used as a joystick. The implementation offers a new way to play joystick only or multi-vehicle-mode games without an actual joystick. If you have a joystick enabled game that you'd like to test/play with your Omnimouse, send us an email about our pre-release beta firmware patch.
These features and others will be available to all Omnimouse, Fragpedal and AMP owners for upgrading their devices soon. The new firmware will be available for download on the IDI Devices support page by the end of the month.
